If the Left weren’t so timid, they would be all over this and demand he is examined for senility. Because, let’s face it, that is exactly what the GOP would do if Biden started talking about the War of 1812 or how he will defeat George W Bush.

Sure, there are going to be a bunch of snarky comments and a few memes about this posted, but I hate to break it to you all, our comments on social media don’t mean squat. We need actual people in positions of power to come forward and demand Trump get a mental health exam. But they clearly are too cowardly to do so.

Timidity isn’t the problem. The “left” only exists in online forums such as Lemmy. Truth be told, there’s been such a disastrous amount of damage done to working class consciousness over the decades during the cold war that people think wanting universal healthcare is communist.

But that is being timid. Because the Right has made universal healthcare a “communist” thing, but the Left is so utterly clueless in this country that they can’t make a unified, cohesive argument for it. They are too timid to attack the Right, even when the Right never misses a chance to go on the offensive.

The Left in other parts of the industrialized world can be credited for universal healthcare, paternity leave, low-cost higher education and stuff like that.

The Left in the US can be credited for fucking up pronouns.

One is useful for getting working families what they need most to not just survive, but actually prosper. The other is just uselessly wasting everyone’s time and energy on pointless issues, and as such, it is no wonder that the Left in the US gets little support and even less respect.

The problem is that there is no true “Left” in America. The Democrats are a right wing political party when compared with international politics.

The only difference between the 2 is that the Dems pretend to fight for human rights, though in actuality they DO very little. Mostly just talk, not mich action.
